Most Pizza huts around me only do take out. I wouldn’t want to wait long enough to watch a movie when I order pizza.

Does this mean that the average ass radius will increase, and more importantly, how can we support Michelles’ efforts to promote RRR rectal radius retrenchment?

When I go out to eat I do not want to see or hear TV. That said I don’t go to Pizza Hut so this won’t affect me.

How about sinking the money for DirecTV into improving the quality of the pizza instead? At least Domino’s knows they have a problem with how their pizzas taste.

Somehow referring to people eating at Pizza Hut as “diners” is like referring to Michelle as sophisticated.

Every pizza will come with television programming loaded with extra cheese.

The Hut’s not my favorite pizza either. It’s okay, and I do like the fact you can get a personal pan at the drive-thru for a quick lunch. But there are some mom and pop parlors in my town that just beat the pants of any pizza chain’s pies.

So while you eat your pizza, you get to watch a channel the manager picked, like the “O” network, Current TV, or Logo. No thanks.

I don't watch television, and having a television visible while eating in a restaurant is like fingernails on a chalkboard.

How is this for unpleasant? My wife and I went out somewhere to eat, and while eating they had a soccer game on television (even worse than just television)

There was a nasty sound coming from the television, and I thought it was broken. It wasn't. It was the sound of those damned vuvuzelas.

Then I saw this a few weeks later, and I nearly fell over laughing:
